The India’s national cricket team would have finalized their rapid rocking attack for the second test against England at the Edgbaston stadium in Birmingham. They are currently followed by 0-1 in the series of five games in progress against England after a defeat at five titles in Headingley.
Despite the defeat, the Indian reflection group decided to stick to its plan, because Jasprit Bumrah was rested in the second crucial test against England as part of the workload management, according to Revsportzz.
Jasprit Bumrah rested, Shardul Thakur fell from XI India for the 2nd test in Edgbaston
It is said that Akash Deep replaced Jasprit Bumrah in the XI in India for the second test in Edgbaston. Akash Deep joined Mohammed Siraj and Prasidh Krishna as a rhythm trio for the second test match in Edgbaston, from July 2.

No word on Kuldeep Yadav while India applies to the same range of strikers
There have already been calls for the inclusion of Kuldeep Yadav in the Xi Playing for the second crucial test, but there is no word for the Chinese bowler of the management of the Indian team. Ravirand Jadeja is almost sure for the Edgbaston test despite his bad outing during the first test in Headingley.
It is said that the range of strikers will be the same as the Headingley test, with Kl Rahul and Yashasvi Jaiswal, followed by Sai Sudharsan, Shubman Gill, Rishabh Pant and Karun Nair. With the entrance to Nitish Kumar Reddy, it remains to be seen where the young person will be written, because he is also an explosive striker.
Reddy is likely to beat after pant during the second test against England. However, it will be interesting to see if Karun Nair and Sai Sudharsan will be retained after their miserable outings during the loss of five gates in India against England during the opening of the Anderson-Tendulkar trophy. But most of the range of strikers should be unchanged for the Edgbaston test.
BCCI supports Gautam Gambir in the middle of the red struggles
Meanwhile, the work of Indian head coach Gambhir is currently sure despite bad results in the red ball cricket. It is said that even if the Indian team loses the series of five game tests in progress in England by a huge margin, the selectors and the BCCI are not in the mood to make changes.
They have already lost the series of tests against New Zealand and Australia, but the selectors and the BCCI want to support Gambir since the team has passed through the transition phase and did not care about the results, at least for certain series.
A source from BCCI would have said by Insideport: “For the moment, Gambir is doing a good job with a young team. In transition, you do not always get the expected results. Australia and England both had difficulties during their transitions. confidence in the board of directors.
